FAQs

Q: How do your cranes handle 1600°C molten metal safely?​

A:​​ Triple-layer protection: ceramic thermal barriers (1500°C rated), water-cooled cables, and ATEX-certified explosion-proof cabinets ensure safety in steel plant environments. Ideal for ladle transfers near EAF/converters

Q: What positioning accuracy can be achieved for precise pouring?​

A:​​ ±3mm accuracy via Siemens S7-1500 PLC laser guidance and VVVF micro-speed control (1:20 range). Reduces spillage during converter charging

Q: When to choose four-girder vs. double-girder design?​

A:​​ Four-girder recommended for 120-320t loads (optimal weight distribution), double-girder for <120t (cost-effective). Six-rail design available for >320t capacities

Q: How does the mother-child trolley improve efficiency?​

​​A:​​ Adjustable hook span (2-5m hydraulic adjustment) and independent child trolley movement enable 30% faster ladle positioning vs. fixed hooks.

Q: What certifications ensure furnace area compliance?​

A:​​ CE EN 15011, ISO 12482-1, and IECEx explosion protection. All electricals rated IP66 with nitrogen-purged cabinets

Q: Can existing cranes add automation?​

A:​​ Yes - SmartPour retrofit kit enables automated pouring (±1% volume accuracy), thermal ladle monitoring, and UWB collision avoidance
